Caleb O'Shea (1824-16 July 1863) was a key lieutenant of William Cutting's Natives gang. Despite being of Irish Catholic extraction himself, he joined Cutting's nativist gang and the Know Nothings after the Battle of the Five Points and took part in the harassment of newer Irish immigrants during the 1860s. He was killed during the New York draft riots of 1863.
